If you are travelling from the islands of Koh Samui or Koh Phanagan, rather than travelling south to Surat Thani railway station to catch a train, it is much quicker to travel from the ports, directly to Bangkok by bus.

You will find flights from URT to BKK or DMK (Suvarnabhumi or Don Muang) are much cheaper than flights from Koh Samui island and if you book in advance, you can often find tickets for roughly the same price as a sleeper ticket on a train.
